    If you'd like to have the hard copy of this album, it comes with a children's book that I wrote and painted. It tells a story to express the magic of music and how it is available to everyone. I had so much fun creating this book, and I hope you enjoy it.

lyrics

What is the purpose of my eyebrows?
Are they there to keep me extra warm?
Maybe they are there to be a shelter
For an ant who’s passing in a storm

What is the purpose of my eyebrows?
Are they there so I can paint them green
Then I am a little closer to being a wild monster
And I have a great excuse for being mean

Fuzzy fuzzy little strips of hair
I’m so curious why it is you’re there
Like two islands stranded in the middle of the sea
Which is my face

So what is the purpose of my eyebrows?
Maybe they are there to be a clue
Then when I am sad or happy
Mad or glad or extra zappy
You will know because of what my eyebrows do

But then I read in the encyclopedia
That what our eyebrows do for us
Is keep our eyes more safe from sweat and dust

So that is the purpose of my eyebrows
But clearly it is not the only one
And I love how some are thick or thin
Or black or brown or blonde
Or long or short or curly
Or whatever form they come

Fuzzy fuzzy little strips of hair
Now I know why it is you’re there
Like two islands stranded in the middle of the sea
Which is my face

So that is the purpose of my eyebrows
But clearly it is not the only one
And I love how some are thick or thin
Or black or brown or blonde
Or long or short or curly
Or whatever form they come

Welcome to the music of Lesley & the Flying Foxes. We make music that celebrates life and learning and silliness! Some of the songs are wild, some are gentle, some have that big band swing feel, and others are more folky. Whatever the groove, we hope that these songs get the kids AND the adults singing, dancing, and feeling good! ... more
